High Salary SG

James Harden, HOU at IND ($11,800): Harden is the most expensive player available on Sunday, but that shouldn’t matter given the way he’s been playing. He’s destroying good defenses. He’s destroying bad defenses. He’s destroying all defenses. He’s a triple-double threat every night, can score 40, and can dish ten assists. Keep going with Harden and don’t think twice about the money. *****

DeMar DeRozan, TOR at BOS ($8,200): The Celtics enter Sunday’s game against the Raptors one an 11-game win streak and with the best defense in the league. However, DeRozan is coming off a 44 point, eight assist performance against the Pelicans and the Raptors are going to give an Irving-less Celtics their best shot. DeRozan and Toronto have something to prove and this has all the makings of a big game for the Raptors shooting guard. ****

High Value SG

Eric Gordon, HOU at IND ($5,900): Gordon has been great as Harden’s sidekick during Harden’s current run. He’s averaging 30.5 FPPG this year, is getting any look he wants from beyond the arc, and is finishing extremely well around the rim. Pairing the Rockets backcourt with each other is a recipe for an 80+ fantasy night from two guys. They’ll have their looks against the Pacers and it’s doubtful that they miss. *****

Terry Rozier, BOS vs TOR ($5,100): With Kyrie Irving out, Rozier will be tasked with running the Celtics offense. He played well when Irving left the Charlotte game earlier, providing owners with 33.4 fantasy points. He rebounds the ball well from the guard position, picks his spots offensively, and should find more assists as his usage rate increases in Irving’s absence.
